ARRL Field Day

One of the bigger events in the US. I still need to find my results for 2004; I did operate, but I didn’t submit my log to ARRL, so I have to go digging.

Field Day 2008

0 points, 0 contacts; no category, no power

This year the boys and I joined UDXA for their Field Day operations up on Skyline Drive. They boys both operated on the GOTA station. Each netted about twenty-five contacts and had a blast. I chose not to have any op time so it could be all about the boys.  Maybe next year we can do more and stay longer.

Way to go, sons! :D
